Air Fryer Sirloin Steak Recipe

If you're looking to achieve perfectly cooked sirloin steak with minimal fuss, the air fryer is your new best friend. This simple yet flavourful recipe will elevate your dinner routine.

Ingredients:

• 2 sirloin steaks, about 1 inch thick
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions:

1. Preparation: Begin by patting the sirloin steaks dry with kitchen paper. This helps achieve a lovely sear. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.

2. Marinate the Steaks: Rub the marinade generously over both sides of the steaks. Allow them to rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes, letting the flavours infuse.

3. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 200°C (about 400°F) and preheat for 5 minutes.

4. Cooking: Once preheated, place the steaks in the air fryer basket, ensuring they aren’t overcrowded. Depending on your desired doneness, cook for about 10-12 minutes for medium-rare, flipping halfway through.

5. Rest and Serve: After cooking, let the steaks rest for a few minutes before slicing. This step is crucial, as it allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a tender bite. Serve with your favourite sides, and enjoy the juicy, flavour-packed results of your air fryer sirloin steak!

This quick and easy recipe is perfect for a weeknight dinner or special occasion, offering that delightful char-grilled flavour without the hassle of a grill.
